I am currently running Continental ContiSportContact 5P. They are even stickier that the ExtremeContact DWs I had on my W8. I have two summers on them and do not have any cupping, I have only have been rotating front-back.
TSW Bathurst Just picked these up yesterday. 18x8.5 with Bridgestone Potenza S-04 tires in 235/40. I am very happy with them.
I am very impressed with the battlecross x30's. They are very consistent and predictable. I've been getting great traction which isn't surprising but what did surprise me was the tread life. This tire has lasted like a champ for me.
Just put on four new 18" Conti Extreme Contact DWS tires on it and the ride is smooth and so very quiet.
My Bridgestone Ecopia tires (on it from the dealer) have a surprisingly high amount of grip.
Bridgestone's have been amazing for me. Quiet, great traction in all weathers, and good tread wear. A little stiffer than other tires maybe but I prefer the handling anyway.
I had a set of 4 matching Continental tires with about 90% tread left.
I'm on my 4th set of blizzaks, and the new ws-80 are a huge improvement over previous versions. The older tires were terrible on dry/rain with a mushy feel. The WS-80 drive much more like an all-season. I drive aggressively, and these are very confidence inspiring no matter what the road surface is like. I took them out on snow/ice/slush for the first time last weekend and they were fantastic, not a single hiccup on the way to Mt. Hood Meadows.
They did fine, not a great performing tire but for the price they aren't bad at all.
My biggest gripe was that you can't tell how much life it has left in the rear, since it had a smooth center. I just noticed mine showed cords one day.
my buddy just picked up ws70's for his 2011 wrx. yesterday we went for a ride up the mountains and both of us where dissapointed in the ws70's. There was no snow or ice, but we did hit wet/damp roads and the ws70's where very squirmy in the corners. they sort of understeer then snap and oversteer. I wouldnt suggest them if she does any sort of spirited driving.
